Is a 16 year old Championship player really worth £30.4 Million pounds?

[Brin]

Not old enough to sign professional forms, this lad apparently is Germany bound unless Chelsea stump the deal with
£50 Million pounds! Mind blowing, and they wonder why football is in the current financial mess it is in.

In one word

NO

(OK 4)

Isn’t there rules on players under 18 to stop them signing for other clubs?

As you say Brinster, is there any wonder the game is in the current mess it is in. Sheer madness!

That’s hell of a lot of pressure to put on a 16yr old just hope he can handle it first but even with out seeing him my answer would have to be NO.

As the old saying goes "more money than sense".

So, if he was one of our players then I would say of course.

[jocksgloves]

Supply and demand. He is worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

With you on this, it’s a good job football is promoting mental health

Birmingham finally are within the fair play rules should be the headlines.
